This past weekend Wayne Static pasted away at the age of 48. Today not only do we celebrate his birthday but we get a story from former Static X guitar tech Erik Fincher on how "Evil Disco" got it's name.

The "Real Five" is back. It's the top five "most played" tracks, today featuring Static-X. As you may have heard we lost Wayne Static this weekend, so we'll take this opportunity to list the top five tracks from the band.

The rock world is still reeling from the passing of Static X singer Wayne Static. His wife, Tera Wray, released a statement on the departed musician's Facebook page Monday night to thank people for their support.

I have often wondered why the industrial metal sound of Static-X and their contemporaries didn't take over the world. To me it just seemed to be the logical place for metal to go. I loved Static-X, The Union Underground, and even lighter fare like Stabbing Westward. Now the man who truly put his heart and soul into this type of sound is gone leaving us with some stories and a lot of great music.
